What Is SneakPeek® Clinical?

SneakPeek Clinical is an early gender DNA detection test offered to women starting at 7 weeks into pregnancy. The genetic test gives you the first step to connect with your baby before you are able to see the exciting clear images from your ultrasound scans.

The full service includes a blood draw using the sneak peek snap device in the comfort of the ultrasound studio, and then returns the sample to SneakPeek Labs for processing. The laboratories offer the fastest turn around times in the industry, with a choice of receiving your result the same day the sample reaches the SneakPeek lab.

How Does SneakPeek® Work?

SneakPeek® utilizes the natural process of shared fetal DNA circulating inside the mother’s bloodstream. Our PCR technology has the ability to detect the presence or absence of male Y chromosome in the blood sample provided starting at 7 weeks into pregnancy. If it is detected then the baby’s gender is male and if it is not detected then the baby’s gender is female.

Don’t Take Our Word For It.

Multicenter Blinded Study Of SneekPeek Was Conducted At Four Ultrasound Clinics In 2015.

The purpose of this study was to assess the clinical performance of SneakPeek® Early Gender Test (Gateway Genomics) for noninvasive prenatal testing (NIPT) of fetal sex. A multicenter-blinded study was conducted at four ultrasound clinics with maternal blood samples collected from pregnant women between 9 and 35 weeks of gestation. A new large scale study was run from May to August 2021 to determine the accuracy and sensitivity of the early gender test at 7 weeks. DNA blood samples were collected from 75 women gestational age and a second sample was collected at 8 weeks gestation to confirm the 7 week test result. 30 of 30 were correctly identified as male and 45 of 45 were correctly identified as female. There were no cases of male DNA contamination with the clinical DNA testing. The clinical DNA testing is different from the home kits.

Circulating cell-free DNA was isolated from a micro-volume of maternal plasma and real-time quantitative PCR was performed to detect fetal DNA using a multi-copy sequence on the Y chromosome. An autosomal control gene was used to measure total cell-free DNA (maternal and fetal cfDNA). Sixty maternal plasma samples were tested twice, on different days, to assess the precision of SneakPeek.

Cell-free DNA was detected in all maternal blood samples. Y-chromosome DNA was detected in all samples from women carrying a male fetus.

SneakPeek correctly identified fetal sex in all samples. Assay precision data showed minimal variation and high reproducibility of results. Fetal sex for all samples was unknown prior to genetic testing and was confirmed via sonographic evaluation at the conclusion of the study. SneakPeek accuracy, sensitivity and specificity were each 100% for fetal sex identification. This blinded study showed that SneakPeek Early Gender Test is highly accurate for fetal sex determination in early pregnancy.

Frequently Asked Questions

I’ve previously had a boy. Will that skew my results?

Clinical studies have shown that fetal DNA clears from mom’s bloodstream between a few hours to 2 days after birth.

I’m having twins. Can SneakPeek determine fetal sex for each one?

In the case of identical twins, if male DNA is found, then both babies are boys. If no male DNA is found, then both babies are girls. For fraternal twins (or more!), finding male DNA will confirm at least one baby is a boy, but cannot distinguish if the second is a boy or girl.

Do hormone disorders such as PCOS affect my results?

SneakPeek is a DNA-based test, so hormones do not impact results. Is this test safe?

SneakPeek Clinical is a non-invasive prenatal test (NIPT), and it’s safe for both mom and baby.

How quickly can I get my results?

Your sample is mailed to SneakPeek Labs via Priority Mail Express (aka“overnight mail”). Fast Track customers: Expect your result email between 6-9pm Pacific Time the day your sample is received by SneakPeek. Standard customers: Expect your result email between 1-5pm Pacific Time the day after your sample is received by SneakPeek.

Are results guaranteed?

SneakPeek Clinical is the most accurate early gender test on the market. If your test result does not match the gender of your newborn, you’ll receive a full refund.

How is my privacy protected?

We know your DNA information is personal.

To protect your privacy:

1. SneakPeek tests only for baby’s gender. No data is gathered about disease states or other health-related information.

2. After the test is run, your DNA sample is disposed of by a professional chemical management company in compliance with federal standards.

3. SneakPeek never shares your results with anyone other than the email address you provide.
